There are rumors that we'll offer him a new 200k per week contract with a release clause of 100 million!

that's about right with the form he is on now...tho if he keep performing like this, the 100M release clause will not stop the likes of Real camping outside the door

[laza]

His attitude during the summer was extremely disrespectful but he has put his head down and repaid the faithful in full with his performances as far im concerned.

I like to see him stay and play Champions league with us, however if we don't qualify then I cant blame him for leaving.  I wish him well with a foreign club and wonder who we will purchase with a world record transfer that we will get for him

In which case we win anyway. Madrid would prefer not to pay £100M cash for Suarez, leaving us with lots of bargaining power for the likes of Benzema, Alonso, etc to be part of a cash/player deal.

[supersub]

Bale set the benchmark.....therefore the selling price is players & cash with a combined value of £120 million or no deal....

preferably no deal

My stance on Suarez is still unchanged, he's a genius and one of the best footballers to grace our shirt, but he's not a red at heart.

He never apologised to the fans for his summer ramblings and I've never forgiven him for that. Should he stay this season and leave in the summer for £60-80 million, I won't be too disappointed. However, I wont be too disappointed either if he signs a new deal and pledges his future to the club.

My gut feeling is the lad has been told he can go in the summer, should he want to, and that's what he'll do. Judging from this season, the likes of Real, Bayern and PSG will be queuing around the block for his services..

Kewell mate there are a lot of ways of saying I'm sorry. Would you have preferred him to have grovelled to the fans with a verbal apology and gone through the motions like a sulky Nando or apologise demonstrably by scoring phenomenal goals and playing with an attitude that is seldom seen on a football pitch. This day and age I really don't know what a red at heart is? Who in the team would you say truly deserves that accolade. I'm struggling to think of more than three.

Great post in reply to a not so great post.

[Thommo's perm]

I just love his attitude. When we were winning 5-1 against Norwich and he missed an opportunity or somebody didn't give him the ball his reaction was almost as if we were losing 5-1 !!! On his day he is quite simply the best player I have ever seen play for Liverpool and I go back nearly 50 years.

I defended him to the hilt during his periods of indiscretion (we all make mistakes ffs) and I'm glad that I did but more importantly I'm glad that the club did. He is adored by the fans and the summer has been consigned to history except of course for the odd clown that no doubt still questions whether or not  he should be playing for Liverpool. Just as important the body language of both himself and his team mates speaks volumes.

I suggested in the summer that if he behaved and had a good season and a decent world cup that he could be worth £60m. I now think that figure should be a minimum of £80m or possibly more !!!

Get him to sign a four year contract and give him a minimum of £250/300k a week as soon as reasonably possible. The mood he is in at the moment I think he would sign it. The proviso would be that he cannot leave until the end of next season at the very earliest and that he couldn't go to a Premiership team. Behaviour clauses may also be a good idea 

Im finding it hard to take what you say seriously here

[parchpea]

If he does sign a new deal the bar wont be set too high on the sell out price or he wont sign it simple as that.

Champs league or not we could still lose Suarez in the summer and if he keeps this up I doubt we can hang on another season, and I suspect there is
some truth in rumours he has been asked to help us into the top 4 this year and either way be allowed to move if he wishes. Maybe that is why he
playing out of his skin again.

We will be really lucky to hang on to this guy as truth it he is too good for Liverpool and simply miles ahead of his team mates.

Given our standing in the food chain we have been fortunate to have him in Liverpool colours this long, he's incredible.

During the summer only Arsenal actually showed any genuine interest. I think it is more likely that Suarez's legal people and management have told him that having the reputation of public enemy number one is not necessarily a good thing. Missing a high percentage of games during the last two seasons because of idiotic bans is also a consideration for a potential buyer and this will have been made clear to him in no uncertain terms. Cutting off the hand that feeds you is also not a particularly clever thing to do. Based on that personally I don't think Liverpool FC will have had to make any unwritten offers to get the best out of Luis this season. It is up to BR and the owners to give him the platform that he deserves to win major trophies and that together with CL qualification will be the key to whether or not he stays. And just maybe £100m would be to difficult to refuse !! It would certainly test the resolve of any owner.

He doesn't look like a player who is simply giving his all just to get transferred. His body language does not suggest that for one minute. His attitude is undeniably top class.

[Red Focus]

He is a highly competitive person  who loves to win and hates to lose. Any club in the world needs someone like him. I'd love to see him play all his football here till he retires. But looking at the state of Liverpool now, logic tells me, he's too good for Liverpool. Look at our club now. With Enrique, Sturridge and Stevie out, we're in trouble. Squad is not deep and we're replacing those injured players with average players. We only stand a good chance of top 4 finish if we have all first choice players in every position available. With Man City, Chelsea and all the big two in Spain, if they have 3 key players injured, they will still have strong backup players to make up for it. For us, we don't. WE're in the state of rebuilding with promising young players like Ibe, Sterling, Suso, Sinclair and I'm optimistic about our future. But for now, we're in a transition. So why would Suarez whom in my opinion is the 3rd best player in the world want to remain in a club in this current state. If RM wants him, I don't blame him for opting to go. We are not a football super power at the moment and Suarez is wasting his talent in a club in transition.

[Red Focus]

even though he looks like he's loving it here atm i have my doubts as to whether he will stay if we have no C.L.
i dont think he has changed his stance on wanting to play in it.
we can give him all the money we want if he sign's a new contract but imo he is not motivated by money and besides that whatever we do offer other's will match or top it.
if he does sign a new deal then i expect it to be on his terms and full of clauses that will stop us from putting our foot down and commanding him to stay.
our best bet of keeping him imo is signing the right players in january and making sure we qualify

You're right, I agree. But you must know that FSG's vision for Liverpool is signing kids and building for the future. Why would LS want to remain in such a club?

If that was the case mate I'd be happy. Given the age of Assaidi, Borini and Aspas together with their very limited ability where do you actually think they fit into FSG's plans? FSG can be blamed for some things but buying players like that was not down to them and it is not all down to money. Look what Everton achieved on the last day of the season.We have got to buy better starting now !!!!
